THE MOTHER BOARD

A mother board is the main printed circuit board found in general purpose microcomputer and
other expandable system. It hold and allows communications between many of the crucial
electronic components of a system, such as the central processing unit and memory and provides
connectors for other peripherals

PARTS OF A MOTHER BOARD


cpu) the central processing unit (CPU) is the brain of your computer. It handles all the instruction
you give your computer, and the faster it does this, the better. Learn about how a CPU processes
instruction and how computer engineers are continuously coming up with ways to make it go faster

FAN AND HEATSINK


is an electrocnic device that in corporates a fan and active cooling solution to keep the CPU cool

BIOS chip
basic (input/out put system) is the program a personal computer’s microprocessor uses to get the
computer system started you turn it on. It also manages dala flow between the computers operating
system and attached devices such as the hard disk, video adapter keyboard, mouse and printer

I/o SYSTEM
input/output or i/o(or, informally , io or IO) is the communication between an information processing
system, such as a computer, and the outside world possibly a human r or another information
processing system

BUS EXPANSION SLOTS


expansion bus. Expansion bus. An input/output pathway from the CPU to prepheral devices typically
comprising a series of slot on the motherboard into wich expansion cards are inserted. PCI is a common
expansion bus in a PC and other hardware platforms

CMOS STORAGE CHIP


is also a computer chip on the motherboard, or more specifically a RAM chip, which means it would
normally lose the settings it’s storing when the computer is shutdown. How ever. The CMOS battery is
used to provide constant power to chip.

CMOS BACKUP BATTERY


computer definition A battery that maintains the time date, hard and disk and ther configuration
settings in the CMOS memory. CMOS batteries are small and are attached directly to the motherboard,
see BIOS and batteries

NORTHBRIDGE INTERFACE
is an intel chipset that communicates with a computer processor and controls interaction with memory,
the peripheral component interconnect (PCI) bus level 2 cache and all accelerated graphics port (AGP)
activities northbriges is one part of a two part chip set called northbrige/southbrige

SOUTHBRIGED INTERFACE
is a reference to a chipset on a PC motherboard. It us a group of microchips designed for a single
function and manufactured as a single unit, this chipset control or manages input and output(I/0).
Examples of I/O interface connection s controlled by southbrige are USB,serial, IDE and ISA,

IDE DISK DRIVE CONNECTION


short for integrated drive electronics, IDE is more commonly know as ATA or PATA (parallel ATA) . …IDE
is different than SCSI and EDSI (enchanced small disk interface) because its controllers are on each drive,
meaning the drive can connect directly to the mother board or controller

SATA PORT CONNECTION


A serial advanced technology attachment (serial ATA, SATA or S-ATA) is a computer bus interface used to
connect host bus adapters with mass storage devices like optical drives and hard drives. This interface is
commonly used to connect hard disk drives to host system such as a computer motherboard

MEMORY SLOT
A memory slot, memory socket, or RAM slot is what allows RAM (computer memory) to be inseted into
the computer. Depending on the motherboard there may be two to four memory slots(sometime more
on high end motherboards) and are what determain the type of RAM used with the computer

DDR5 RAM
videos card slots- A video card connect to the mother board of a computer system and generates output
images to displayed. Video cards are also referred to as graphics card . video cards include a processing
unit memory. A cooling mechanism and connections to a display device.
